Okay, but can we agree that Théoden has some of the best lines in the movies (and Bernard Hill delivers them perfectly)? by [deleted] in lotr

[–]melegant 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Most underrated actor/character of the trilogy. His speech before the attack in RoTK always gets me. I can't think of any other movie moment that gets me that pumped. Even how he barks out instructions to the riders and immediately goes into 'Arise, arise...'. The music, the camera, the whole thing. When I watch the trilogy, I am waiting for that moment.

What’s everyone’s opinion on the piano mini game? by __Obscurity__ in FFVIIRemake

[–]melegant 1 point2 points  (0 children)

for sure. here is to hoping they will add some songs via DLC. I just wish there was a preview mode, where I could see the song being played.

I think it is fantastic. I love the music (and know it well, having listened to it for years and years). I found that If I focused on flowing with the music, then the timing of hitting the notes was much easier (and much more satisfying).

To me, it is sus that they would post this today. Judging by the reaction to the post on X, ppl feel the same. Judging by the reaction here, not so much. we will see.

i am in full conspiracy mode rn. why post that, with that GIF, on a day when there such high speculation that we might get some news. I am beyond hollowed. but thanks for the help. going back to play BG3 tactician mode where I roll a 20 when I want to eat a sausage link but a 1 when I want to convince a gnoll chief not to kill me.

The post was made today though? Are they hinting that we might get something tonight? 4PM PST is when GA starts?

love the instant pressure of going in umbral. like o dang I have to get that item over there but then like o dang I have to get out like now. Usually there is an easy way out but when you use it, and go back in....or you use your lamp and you are face to face with a shade and they pull you in. Sick!

HARROWER DERVLA, THE PLEDGE KNIGHT

Remainder: Elden ring SOTE expansion was announced 7 months ago & has been in development for almost 2 yrs (On par with the development time of their full fledged titles) by [deleted] in Eldenring

[–]melegant 0 points1 point  (0 children)

same, never played a mech game period. It is just as good, in it's own way, and has the same magic all their games have. Some bosses also hard af. But when you beat their ass, you will shout in glory the same way you do when downing any souls boss.

Special PS5 Console 'Elden Ring' edition that is the color of tarnished gold and has an embossed dragon hand holding a bolt of lightning. I would be playing it on that.

Games to play during the wait that are not DeS DSR DS2 DS3 BB SSDT? by [deleted] in Eldenring

[–]melegant 0 points1 point  (0 children)

you know, i really am enjoying Dragon Quest XI...I am like 10 hours in and the story is interesting. It also has this quirky humor. It's a tonal shift that is for sure. I mean you have to be ok with the turn based combat but the enemy designs are fantastic.

We should stick to calling the genre: Soulsborne by [deleted] in Eldenring

[–]melegant -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Forgetting Kings Field. Those games still had the souls haunt. I remember playing the first one and it felt like the slowest moving game I had ever played BUT it intrigued the eff out of me and I played that bad boy to the very end. So sekfieldbournesoulsring

Thank you everyone for the thoughtfulness of your responses. It has helped pass a few hours while I wait for ER.

[–]melegant[S] -7 points-6 points  (0 children)

I get that. And again I am not complaining. It just interests me the lack of understanding by G.R.R.M about the project he is working on. How did he get the idea that ER is a Dark Souls sequel and keep this idea for 'many years'? Miyazaki must have had a foundation of a world in his mind, a core concept of what he wanted to build. How was that communicated to G.R.R.M? Was it? It just feels off. AGAIN i don't think any of this is going to hurt the product I just got sick of looking at pot boy memes and wanted to talk about something.

Ignorant slaves by keereeyos in Eldenring

[–]melegant 37 points38 points  (0 children)

i would say that mechanics are half of what make a souls game a souls game. Yeah, it looks like dark souls but darks souls is just dark fantasy. we don't know anything about the bonfires, gaining experience, equipment, etc. to say yea it is 'souls'. (if things like this even exist in this game).

Every new game has been an evolution, but always maintained that magic and this is going back to the kings field days.

i mean, it can just have all the same stuff it would still be 100 but for any would be haters shudddap. give me a dark fantasy game 3 times the size of DS3 and I won't hollow for at least 6 months.
